Article Synopsis
- Pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital lung issue where abnormal lung tissue is supplied by a wrong artery, most commonly seen in the intralobar form.
- Patients often experience symptoms like recurrent coughing up blood and lung infections.
- Surgical treatment involves carefully removing the affected tissue while protecting healthy lung, with techniques to minimize the risk of bleeding from the abnormal arteries during the procedure.

Pulmonary sequestration (PS) is a rare congenital malformation where abnormal lung tissue lacks a connection to the airways and receives blood supply from systemic arteries. This case report describes a 30-year-old man with recurrent hemoptysis diagnosed with intralobar PS (ILS) as the cause. He underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery to clip and section the aberrant artery, resulting in a successful outcome with no further bleeding.

Pulmonary sequestration is a malformation of lung tissue such that a zone of pulmonary parenchyma exists in isolation from the bronchopulmonary tree. This condition is typically treated with surgical resection, but an increasing number of sequestrations are being treated with arterial embolization. We report interventions that were performed at two institutions on patients 53-70 years old.

Pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital condition wherein a nonfunctional lung segment, arising separately from the true lung bud, develops within the chest cavity but lacks communication with the tracheobronchial tree or pulmonary arterial supply. While this condition is typically diagnosed in children, our case highlights its relevance in adults. We present a 37-year-old male who presented with shortness of breath and was initially diagnosed with a pulmonary abscess.
